Not a bad idea, but the light source on the chef hat is opposite grandpa's light source...maybe you could flip it...and the drop shadow doesn't work, again it's opposite the light source, and there's nothing for the shadow to fall on anyway....
Oh, and sorry author, but I just don't believe you "drew" the chef's hat. It looks just like a photo...a low res photo at that.

if you drew it then why not draw it big enough so it looks real. It does look like a bad photo that you have tried to blow up and its bad. no offence.

Thanks for the info ....Yes I did do a sketch of chef hat and copied how it looked and was colored Bad idea so I got one from internet hope this is better again Thanks to both of ya

Actually, the first one looked real....so real that it looked like a photo. That is why CMYK said that he didn't believe you drew it. The hat you have now is not better because the edges are very blurry. I would go with the first one but resize it bigger. If you need help resizing, just ask and someone will help you.

Sharpen the hat overall, I would use the pen tool and recut it, curve it at the base a bit to match curve of head, add some shadow to head(as hat sits on it)... GL

Ok Guys does that work any better back to original made it a little whiter?And thanks for your suggestions

oh its so good!

Nicely Done!

Tone it down to newsprint level color and it'll be more believable...

if you want it to stand out put it more at the top so we can read it

its easy to see where you have just cut and pasted the image onto the paper, all the adds stop mid sentence and then at bottom of paper they stick out. Not very believable as CMYK says. Maybe find a different paper to use.

lower the exposure, brightness, levels.. whatever helps to make it blend in better

make the source image grayscale before you place it in the paper. Good luck

lol...one thing for sure thats not Grampa reading the paper...lol

source needs to be black and white like the rest of the paper

lovely legs jajajajajajajaa

Perspective of the image would be different on all 3 planes...

nice idea

I agree with CMYK46. Even though the cube is 3d, the image still looks 2d. Try taking sections of the image and use free transform to bend the image to match the 3d cube better. I'm sure someone else might have a good suggestion as well to do this.

I´m pretty sure u can dowlnload that filter somewhere, so it gives the perspective, nice idea.

Take sections as jawshoewhah suggested and use Transform/Perspective tool or Vanishing Point.

You have a good start...this could be great! Try the vanishing point filter to change the top and side planes give more of the cube look you are going for. Also, you could change one or two squares to make the puzzle look unfinished. These are just suggestions but the possibilities are really endless! Good luck

i like this image. i agree with the other posters, the picture needed to be warp or the such like to make it cube like . Adding a little shading to the sides to give a lighting difference may also improve the 3D effect of your image. GL

I would smooth out the edges of the eye and give the white part an inner glow to give it some depth. Good idea, good luck.

I agree with Tnaylor, also i reccomend removing the parts of the image thet you burned but that got on the wall.

Blood spatters look like they're floating in mid air...

the blood does't look very realistic to me, also the eyes are not chopped very well, but the overall idea is good

wow Grampa looks under the weather a little blue in the face ..lol
